question 2 (1 point)
(05.07 mc)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify relevant values

From the table: At 3 storms, gas price = $\$2.44$; At 6 storms, gas price = $\$2.56$

Step2: Apply average rate formula

Average rate of change = $\frac{\text{Change in gas price}}{\text{Change in number of storms}}$
$\frac{2.56 - 2.44}{6 - 3} = \frac{0.12}{3}$

Step3: Calculate final value

$\frac{0.12}{3} = 0.04$

Answer:

a. 0.04
